One funeral - for over 100 Palestinians. 

00:06
They come from just two families. 

00:09
Their remains were recovered from beneath the rubble almost three years after Israeli strikes flattened a residential block in Gaza City. 
  
00:18
Nearly a year after a ceasefire was supposed to end the fighting between Israel and Hamas...

00:25
Israel continues to bomb the Strip. 

The Israeli government regularly says it is targeting Hamas militants.

00:34
Its strikes have killed over a thousand Palestinians in Gaza since last November's ceasefire.

The UN reports more than 150 people were killed in July alone.

00:46
The stalled ceasefire deal was reinvograted late last week when Donald Trump announced that Hamas had agreed to disarm.

The issue has been a major sticking point in finalising the peace deal.

01:00
The new agreement between Hamas and Trump's so-called "Board of Peace" also called on Israel to stop its attacks in Gaza while the disarmament took place. 
 
01:09
Over the weekend, those attacks ramped up instead.

The Israeli prime minister's office says it objected to elements of the disarmament agreement. 

01:20 
Particularly, it rejected calls to withdraw Israeli troops beyond the so-called 'yellow line' - a demarkation that divides the Strip into areas controlled by Hamas and Israel.

01:32
Negotiatiors for the Board of Peace say they provided Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with assurances that the withdrawal will take place only after Hamas has disarmed. 

01:44
And still, the attacks have continued.

01:49
Qatari mediators have since accused Israel of attempting to "derail the plan's implementation and block peaceful solutions"

01:58
All the while, the Gaza Strip remains in ruins, with its residents enduring dire shortages of food, water, and basic medicines.
